I'm loving my one. Bought it for R20 000, registered with a f'd auto box. Swapped out to a manual, redid all the bushings in the engine bay, redoing paint and bumpers, R30 000 all in all for a really fun project and a great car. Came with a nice loud exhaust to terrorize the neighbors with too 😂
I'm an Australian who lived on the East coast of South Africa for a while, and I miss driving in your blessed country where the speed limits on the highway are sensible 120 kph, I have a 560 SEL which is why the algorithm suggests your videos'. Your country is indeed blessed by God, I can see myself cruising your south coast's one day in a suitably cool vehicle. Thanks, bloke, for your videos. Yes, indeed I owned a mx 6 and I know how much fun they are just don't let your wife drive it at all costs ...... Regards an Aussie
Knew someone who had a Probe GT which was an identical platform here in the US and there was the Bay Area Probe Owners club and we used to supply use a HotShot header, made our own cold air intake, used the Greddy exhaust and had RC Engineering bore the throttle body and all these mods woke the car up. We also added a nitrous kit and that really was fun!
Nothing wrong with that I would buy it to. Good to see you giving it a good right boot. They look fantastic without the rear spoiler. Sound is similar to Golf R32 but revs slower.
Absolutely! Interestingly with my HEAVY right foot I filled up today and it had used "only" 11.2 L per 100km over the last tank. Not at all bad I thought.
i’m was looking for one today and was wondering how they drive then i remembered i saw one awhile ago at the walmer spar, so i thought if i see it again i’ll ask the owner how it drives. Anyways i decide to go on youtube and search mx6 and i see your video posted recently so i start it then realise you are in pe. i dont know if it was you at the spar but it was a red mx6 so just thought it was weird 😂
On Wiki it actually specifically says SA models didn’t have 4ws: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda_MX-6#:~:text=Four%2Dwheel%20steering%20was%20used,MX%2D6s%20never%20received%204WS. Yours must be a special import. Enjoy!

Incredible value these cars for sure.

They really are under appreciated and underrated. Sounds like a car should! Thank you for watching.

Hehe, I'll bare that in mind thanks! Glad you enjoy them and thank you for watching.
Sounds Amazing
Yes I love the sound
Yoh!It does make a noise! Loud, loud, loud. Great fun.
What a beautiful noise. I want it!!!
Great car, should get one. Much better than that Saab we saw.

Sounds like a LOT of fun...

Love them! My Dad had one. Right, loading Gumtree now...
Ayyy these cabs are lovely and pretty fast no lie
Awesome man, go for it! Share pics when you get one!

Ha, great that you found the video. It might have been me but there are a few red ones in town. Awesome cars, I enjoy it more every time I drive it.
Should have a similiar 3-stage intake like the 2l V6 I had..
Yes there are definitely steps of power delivery in the rev range. Most noticeable is at 4200rpm.
Mine came with a toggle switch 😂 for driver side window
😂, hey if it works…
Now you gonna get me in trouble with the wife as I also want one.
Worth it bro, just get one with a loud exhaust!
Try to get your hands onto a opel astra coupe turbo (not a clapped out one) they're so underrated it's insane but they drive incredibly.
Great cars those, took one for a drive when they came out and stupidly bought a Saab 9.3 instead.
Did he say 98? I thought 97 was the last year
1998 here in South Africa.
is your four wheel steer working
We didn’t have 4 wheel steering on South African Mx6’s.
@@oldmercguy yes we did mine is. and my previoius one but it was disconected coz car rear felt like it wants to come out at times on my prev one
Interesting, mine definitely doesn’t have 4ws and I havent found any literature of SA ones having it. Yours might be a special import.

Does ur one have cruise control bud
yeah it does, I think it was standard on South African mx6's.
